It should update automatically when signed into live.

[Jord]

sign into xbox live first then it should pop up.

[Coheed&Cambria]

Once youve updated, Its all simple and well-explained so you shouldent have a problem.

[cocaine]

you've already got a 360 but you're getting a new one? :S

and when you sign in it'll prompt you to update

I don't even think he has live yet guys, he's getting LIVE at Christmas I think he's trying to say, NXE is actually really crap when you don't have LIVE as you can't create and avatar or anything so I'd just wait if I was you :)

You can create avatars when off live.

Louis, try and give a better idea of what's happening.

You have the xbox now?
You have live?
You don't have live?

If you don't have live, you can't update it "legally" without getting a live account, but you should be able to create a Silver account and get a free month of Gold, if it's your first month.
If you have live, an update should have appeared and made you download the new dashboard.

Well I couldn't when I actually had NXE before it was release, it kept asking me to connect to LIVE

Yeah, there was a second update after installing the NXE (when on live), that may have affected it.

[J0SH]

Probably because I had LIVE then went to the new update and I couldn't connect before hand so because I had LIVE but was un-able to connect I couldn't make an avatar, but I imagine if I made an offline account I would've been able to ;)
